Summary, Etc. "When she was just thirteen-years-old, Sofia was awakened in the night by unknown men who dragged her into a car and brought her to a "therapeutic wilderness program" three states away. It turns out her mother, worried about Sofia's behavior, had become one of many parents taken in by promises and slick marketing from "schools" purporting to help reform teens and teach them important life skills. Instead, Sofia ended up spending up to a year at a time in a total of three different facilities. In each of these, she experienced verbal and physical abuse and deprivation, and was allowed only limited contact with the outside world, including her mother. Sofia is one of the lucky ones-today she is happy and healthy, and a mother herself. But not everyone comes out of this experience so well. So Sofia is sharing her story, in the hopes that relating her own experiences will save others from having to repeat them"-- Provided by publisher.
